Ethics, Tuesday, November 19, 2024
When the class arrived, they'd find their teachers in the front of the classroom again, one looking slightly more pleased with himself than the other.
He was also chewing.
"We did have a class planned on the ethics of hospitality and social customs around food, but it turns out one of us had different ideas."
Which one of them could she mean?
It was truly a mystery for the ages. "I missed breakfast," Anakin protested.
"That's what ration bars are for," Ahsoka pointed out, completely reasonably. "Not the demonstration cookie." The last one at that.
"But cookies are tastier than ration bars," Anakin replied with an unrepentant shrug. "We can adjust the class."
Ahsoka was giving him such a judgemental look right now. "Yes. We can. How do you handle betrayal ethically?"
"It was a cookie," Anakin said, "Betrayal feels like a strong word for this."
"The last cookie." Ahsoka had the moral high ground.
How dare you make him experience a consequence for his choices, Ahsoka. "Very well," Anakin said. "Let's discuss how we don't overreact to other people's actions."
Sure, Anakin.
"Well, some of us have firsthand knowledge there."
Anakin.
Anakin had never overreacted to anything-- yeah, even the narrative couldn't pretend that was true.
"So let's discuss how we react to small disappointments," Anakin said. "Confront the person? Ignore it? Start a passive-aggressive internal list of all the ways this person has wronged you and eventually explode about it?"

Of course, Stark never had any idea what sorts of jello Summer had in store for Wednesdays. They might all be perfectly fine!

Where the jello might be totally innocent or even delicious.
